Oh yeah...  I remember a segment on 20/20 or some such about them.
It has been some time ago though.
The reason I asked the question was because of a comment I heard several
years ago referring to the Masons as "Traveling Men".  I don't know if
the comment was serious of not or if the individual was even a Mason.
Since the question of Masons in law enforcement had arisen here a short
while ago, I wondered if you were making some reference to them.
Guess not.
Thanks,
